  1. Working full-time and part-time student!!!! HELP

    stefanyjoy replied to Molly0011's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Time management is key. I work full-time and go to school part-time (actually went FT last semester too and made all A's), and have a 5 year-old, and I still have time for myself on the weekends....

  2. Good experience with a student nurse

    stefanyjoy replied to caregiver1977's topic in General Students

    :eek: I would have SLAPPED

  3. Good experience with a student nurse

    stefanyjoy replied to caregiver1977's topic in General Students

    A wonderful post :) Thank you for sharing. When I was pregnant with DD, I was always told, "oh, you won't even care who is looking down there or if you poop because you'll be in such pain/working so...

  4. Torn between continuing my education and my family :(

    stefanyjoy replied to wifeandmomoftwo's topic in General Nursing

    Being a wife and mother is an important role in life, but it is not totally what defines you. If you feel that the role is preventing you from reaching your highest dream, then you will only grow to...

  5. Male OB Frustration

    stefanyjoy replied to IKnowYouRider's topic in Male Nursing Students

    If it makes you feel any better, a whole room full of nursing students got to watch my delivery in 2005, mostly guys! I think it was because I was a very timid patient and they figured I'd be too shy...

  6. Just Rejected From Nursing School - Most Ridiculous Admissions Office

    stefanyjoy replied to guest_57352's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    BeachBedhead....My A&P professor got her doctorate from Duke University. My algebra professor last semester got his from Columbia. I go to a CC. I am learning from these wonderful minds, and I...

  7. Should second-hand smoke be illegal in a home with children?

    stefanyjoy replied to starzrn's topic in General Nursing

    I'm a smoker (Well, I'm on day 2 of quitting for the last time!!), and while I disapprove of government interference in our homes, I have to say child protection should be the exception. I mean, if a...

    stefanyjoy replied to guest_57352's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You got that impression from one post on a message board?

  9. Just Rejected From Nursing School - Most Ridiculous Admissions Office

    stefanyjoy replied to guest_57352's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Ok guys, not trying to stir the pot, but I did not say a CC was equal to Ivy League. I said it was insulting to community college students on this site to say that you can make a 4.0 at a CC without...

  10. Watts School of Nursing June

    stefanyjoy replied to Jeepinjed's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I'm a Durham Tech hopeful, but was considering Watts as a backup plan. Can anyone share about what their financial aid plans are? The cost scares

  11. Prospective Durham Tech Student

    stefanyjoy replied to Tarheelborn's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Pete, you really think all 50 points? I foresee an A in A&P I right now, but I'm a little nervous about making the A in A&P II. I'm taking it over the 8 week summer session. *gulp*. I'm a Fall...

  12. Just Rejected From Nursing School - Most Ridiculous Admissions Office

    stefanyjoy replied to guest_57352's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    So you are saying although she did not make the admissions criteria set by that particular school, since she has a few ivy league credits she should have been "ushered" in to the program ahead of all...

  13. Just Rejected From Nursing School - Most Ridiculous Admissions Office

    stefanyjoy replied to guest_57352's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Then why are all the classes at my CC transferable to any university in my state (NC), and most out of state ones too? I attended the University of Massachusetts for 2 years.... The classes were easy...

  14. Pronounce buccal ... help

    stefanyjoy replied to KitkatPRN's topic in General Nursing

    my professor pronounces it bew-kle not buckle.......

  15. Male OB Frustration

    stefanyjoy replied to IKnowYouRider's topic in Male Nursing Students

    A couple years ago, I had to go to the ER for severe cramping and other reasons. I ended up having to get a foley for whatever reason, and the ER nurse asked me if it was okay if a male nursing...

  16. Help - Need to speak with instructor maturely!

    stefanyjoy replied to chinacatSN's topic in General Students

    "Luck of the draw"? I just don't agree that LUCK should have anything to do with getting a well-rounded clinical experience! I hope things work out for you. I'm glad your meeting at least went ok....

  17. Unemployment Benefits when you are a student?

    stefanyjoy replied to LuckyinKY's topic in General Nursing

    I will be interested to read the responses to this.... it's ridiculous to be disqualified from unemployment just because you are in nursing school. When the big nursing shortage of 2015 (god willing)...

  18. Just Rejected From Nursing School - Most Ridiculous Admissions Office

    stefanyjoy replied to guest_57352's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    but.. beachbedhead... she never straight came out and said, "I am smarter than community college students... I went to CORNELL...winning...duh!" she just directly IMPLIED it... MULTIPLE

  21. Just Rejected From Nursing School - Most Ridiculous Admissions Office

    stefanyjoy replied to guest_57352's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thats fine, we all get that, but that is not what you said. You implied your education at Cornell made you a better candidate in the nursing program than people who got high GPA's from community...

  22. Just Rejected From Nursing School - Most Ridiculous Admissions Office

    stefanyjoy replied to guest_57352's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes, I'm sure all those people that got into the program instead of you barely studied just because they did their pre-requisites at a community college. Uh huh. No wonder the admissions officer said...

  23. Just Rejected From Nursing School - Most Ridiculous Admissions Office

    stefanyjoy replied to guest_57352's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I can tell you now I would never want someone with your elitist attitude as my peer or student. If you are so worthy, find a different program and stop complaining. I would also expect someone with a...

  24. What do you do if your friend is "THAT patient?"

    stefanyjoy replied to mskate's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks a lot.... I logged on to All Nurses "for a minute" about 3 hours ago.... I went to The Oatmeal site per your comment and I just realized what time it was... doh!! :monkeydance:

  25. Tired of Pre-Reqs

    stefanyjoy replied to DarkBluePhoenix's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You have it good my friend. For my CC's ADN program we need like eleventy thousand pre-req's. Started Fall 2010 and will not start NS until Fall 2012. I think it's funny how ADN is called a "two-year...
